Back to Fridrich??

[Roux-er]

Hi,

After using roux for about a month, I think I will switch back to fridrich as my main method. It seems like I spent countless time memorizing algs and then not being able to use them (OLL). Of course if I Switch, I will still use Roux, but not as my main method. Should I Consider switching?


P.S. Don't get mad at me Waffle

I would just keep practicing Roux and use Fredrich for my main (as it's a lot faster) and when your Roux times are about the same as your Fred's then in competitions, use whichever one is the best, although, it would be kind of hard to do that in 15 seconds... Hope you're fast at inspection?

(That's just what I would do... but with my Roux times in the 1:30's and my Fred's in the low/high 30/20's...)

Do whatever you think is best for you. I encountered the same situation, and switched back to Fridrich, but if you like Roux, stick with it.

The reason your roux solves are slow is because you've only been practicing for a month. it took me one whole year to get sub-20.

my advice would be to continue with roux and practice more. as Thieflordz5 suggested, fridrich as your main and keep practicing roux until you get your times equal to your regular solves or faster.

however I believe that its hard to get fast sooner by practicing with 2 methods.

Use Fridrich until you die of boredom, then go back.

You need to stop dissing every method you don't approve of.

Was that directed to me? If so im not "Dissing". If not, then, okay.

Does this mean you'll be changing your username?

Should I Consider switching?

Aren't you already doing that?

The admission of consideration is the hardest part. The decision comes next.

It's your choice about which method you feel more comfortable with. I disliked Fridrich so I switched to Roux. I've stuck with it ever since.
